The Great Rose Culturist.

William Francis Bennett, the noted
rose grower of Long island, was the
ion OF the National Florists Conven.
tion recently held in Chicago. He is q
lumpy little Englishman about 65
years old. The hundreds of florists
Who were there, some OF them million,
aires and many ofthem distinguished,
rise up to do him honor, because
Bennett is the man who first showed
the world that fine roses, like fine
horses, could be bred Twenty-Five
years ago he was a raiser of blooded
sheep, and his experience with stock
suggested to him the idea that has
made his name known all around the
world. Up to the COS only few
scientists knew about the sex ofroses,
or had experimental with ''fertillzing"
by taking the pollen from one rose and
putting that in the stigma OF
another on the same bush. Tie
French florists, who had been the lead
ing rose cultlvators OF the world, had
gone along for centuries raising and
selecting in an accidental, haphazard
and extravagant way. They had
lIGNeE Olcu IOSCS III llC NteJ Cil1U ChC-
tlemen and horsemen breed their fine
animals. Bennett left his sheep-raisihg
and began in 1860 to do this vely
thing. He knew that there were male
and female roses on the same bush,
and he knew, from experience us u
cattleman, that fine progeny could
not be gotten by u process OF in'
and-in breeding. So ne decided to Sc
lect two different families OF roses,
each with good qualities, and to breed
them together. He selected the ia
nous tea rose, because it is a fine
bloomer, and the hybridperpetual. an
equally famous family, because it had
a hardy constitution and a high color.
He was alter color, constitution and
blooming qualities, and he sought
them as horse-raiser would speed,
endurance and symmetry. 1t was
1873 before the world heard much
about William Francis Bennett. In
that year he issued catalogue
OF ten new varieties of roses
all OF them hybrid teas. The list
included roses now famous all over
creation; among them the Duke OF
Connaught, the Duchess OF Connaught,
the Beauty OF Stapleford, the Michael
Saunders, the Countess Falmouth,
! the Pearl, the Nancy Lee and the
Duchess OF Westminster. They were
so new, SO beautiful and so hardy
that they at once amefashionable.
These We're only the beginning OF his
work. There are twenty other varie-
/ ties bred by him. The commercial
value put upon them can be Judged
from the fact that q single variety,
"The William Francis Bennett"
named after its originator, was sold
for $4,000 to Evans, the wholesale
florist OF Philadelphia. He took that
entire variety, ard has handled it
ever since, "Her Maiesty's," another
splendid product OF the Englishman's
rose breeding, brought even higher
price. Bennett is short and very
English. His side whiskers and nous
tache are un iron gray. He is very
amiable in manner, and talks very
enthusiastically OF his work in an in
teresting, unpersonal sort OF way,
just as ii he were an employe who had
accomplished all this work for the
guild to which he belongs. He wears
several splendid decorations issued
by foreign societies.

Gold Poured.Into the Sea

The memory OF the loss OF 100000
OF silver and gold will survive the
drowning OF one thousand souls in
coup. There was the Lutine, for in
stance. She was OF thirty-two guns,
commanded by Captain Skinner, and
she went ashore on the bank OF the
Fly Island passage ON the night OF Oc-
tober 8, 1899. At first she was repu.
ted to have had six hundred thousand
pounds sterling on board. This was
afterwards contracted by astatement
that "the return from the bullion Of
flee makes the whole amount about
e14O,ooO sterling" "Il," I find in q
contemporary account, "the wreck Of
the unfortunate Lutine would be dis
covered, there may be reason to hope
for the recovery OF the bullion.'
In the reign OF James III. some Eng
lish Adventures fitted out q vessel to
search FOR and weigh up the cargo
OF a rich Spanish ship which had been
lost on the coast of South America.
They succeeded, and brought home
100000. which had been forty-four
years at the bottom ofthe sea. Captain
Phipps, who had commanded, had
100000 for his share, and the Duke
Of Albemarle 100000. A medal was
struck in honor OF this event in 1857.

NEWS In BRIEF.


Railroad Indemnity Lands In Wisconsin.
james ii. Howe, general solicitor OF the
Omaha Company, was asked in st. Paul
about the reports tclegraphed concerning
the lands, mud said:
There are probably forty or fifty land
grant roads in the West in all partss0fsonNa
.soYptyy from Texas to Canadas Mastaaf
within the time specified by the law MAX
ing the grant. 1t was at first supposea
that the ,Ddts on5 sfE
preme court OF the United State decided
dRNtEp0sIQAEEag ago,sthat such lands
we're NOT forfeited until the government
aid something toward taking them back,
or, in other words, until declared forfeit
ed by congress. The railroads sold lands
in advance OF certitications to the railroad
company by the governmcnt--agri
lands to farmers grazing lands to stock
men. and timber lands to lumbermen.
Last winter congress passed n wise aud
lust law permitting anybody who had
bought land OF any railroad company
The title to which failed through the land
not being included in the grant as ulti.
mately determined. or for other reasons
to perfect his title by going to the nearest
United States land Office entering 'the
land and paying tho government price for
it. This was done to protect actual set
tiers who had purchased land in good
aith and made improvements on it. Now
their title fails because Commissioner
Sparks has kept back the lists. The law
works no good to the railroad companies
as they get nothing out Oft, for the settler
has to pay the government for the land.
II n man has bought land OF as railroad
company snd made improvements on it.
certainly it is not right for him to be
cheated out OF it bys reason OF de-
feat in the title. Yet these fellows at
Eau Claire are mad because they can
not go. and squat on his land. If
q man has got a 100000 mill on some
land which he bought they want chance
to build a cabin on one corner OF it and
| slaim the whole patch. As to the Omaha
| grant the law giving the lands TO the COM
pany required it to sell all agricultural
| lands to actual settlers at II maximum
price OF $3.50 per acre. II there was more
than 100, 900 feet OF timber on any forty
acres, it was classed as timber land and
could be sold for what it would bring.
Under that law the company has
sold all the lands in the grant. OF
course, the lumbermen in that country
have bought more or less OF these lands,
and nre cutting and selling the timber.
All the indemnity lands OF the Omaha
company are now pending before tho &C.
tretary OF the interior as to what shall be
certified to the State OF Wisconsin for the
road. Every acre OF it has been patented
to the road by the state, through which the
| title comes. 1t is worse than nonsense to
:harge Senator Spooner with trying to cheat
anybody out OF the land. He simply fav-
pred law which prevents those who
nave purchased lands from being cheat
ed OF it.

German Roman Catholic Union Of America.

The first meeting i'll Chicago was held on
Monday the 9Th inst About 300 dele.
gates were present. President Spannhorst
pf Detroit made an address OF greeting. Ho
claimed that the attitude OF the German
Catholics toward other nntionalities had
peen misrepresented. On the questions
ssued between the Irish and the German
Catholics the church alone had authority to
decide. George Mitsch OF st. Paul intro

protect the good name OF German Catholic
societies from injury. all societies should
be exhorted not to receive in their midst
any knights oil Labor, and such as are III
ready in them should be induced to leave
the knights OF Labor. Mr.. Mitsch spoke
In favor OF his resolution. The Knights
OF Labor had demoralizing influence up
on the German workingmen. He failed te
see any difference between the Knights o.
Labor and other socialists and prohibition
societies. lie was sorry to see that many
Germans were members OF an order tht
leaders OF which had addressed q petition
to congress against German immigration
while Mr.. Powderly had openly showr
himself to be prohibitionist and enemy
OF the Germans. The entire order OF tht
Knights OF Labor was governed by Irish
men. The Germans ought to consider it {
disgrace to be ruled by Irish ignoramuses
The remarks were received with applause
The resolution was referred to the commit
tee on labor matters. Thirty.two new so
rieties were admitted to the union.

A CHINAMAN LYNCHED.
A California Mob Avenges a Murde
An Exciting Time i'm COlusa.

An Exciting Time In COluAas
CHICAGO July ia special dispatch from Co
lusa, Cal. printed here says: AT about 1890
O'Clock yesterday morning Hong Di, the Chinese
some time ago, was taken from jail and hanged by
a mob. The murderer had been on trial for several
days, and a verdict OF guilty was returned Satur-
ment for life. Mrs. Biiiou, her two daughters
and VIM. Weaver, head servant man, We're sitting
at supper when the door OF the dining room was
thrown open by Hong Di, the cook, who loyelled a
Winchester ref1e at Weaver and shot him through
the shoulder. He fell on the floor, and a second
shot went through Mrs Bilious head, killing her
instantly. Both daughters fed to an adjoining
room and escaped uninJured. The Chinaman fed
and Weaver managed TO get on his feet and locked
the door. No trace OF the murderer could be seen
for nearly a week, when he was found on the bank
OF the Sacramento river. nearly starved to death.
The circumstances OF the assassination were still
fresh In the mind or every one and on hearing the
verdict the crowd became exasperated.
WILD SCENE IN COURT.
The Judge refused to accept the decision OF the
jury and a wild scene at once began Almost
every man present was armed, and In an instant a
hundred pistols were drawn, amid cries OF Lynch
him" The sheriff jumped to his feet and quieted
proved OF the verdict he hoped no blood would be
shed in court The crowd left the courtroom and
the prisoner was removed to jail. Soon an effort
while the sheriff and his charge were inside a
large and determined mob was forming outside
the jail All day long the crowds kept on the
street. but effort was made to get at the pris-
oner until near midnight. AT that time the town
was alive with strangers from surrounding places
including the captain Of a steamer and twenty OF
his crew.
A BREAK FOR THE JAIL.
Citizens were posted at all avenues of escape
and about II 30 O'Clock q break was made for the
jail Guards had been posted by the sheriff. but
as they were in sympathy with those on the out
side little resistance was made. In few moments
the assassin was in the avengers hands. Weaver,
the man whom he had shot first, was present rope
In hand. The prisoner was at once dragged out
and conveyed TO the bridge shr1ek1ng and scream
ing in terror His cries were addressed to deaf
ears, however. The rope was put around his
neck despite his desperate struggle half dozen
raising him in their arms and he was tossed over
the parapet. The wretched being was probably
a few minutes and then swung quietly. shortly
afterward the body was cut down by order OF the
sheriff and carried to the Jail
